You can do this. When you upload your photos it will insert the "lightbox" tag into your post. Just put all the lightbox tags on the same line and preview and they should appear side by side.
If you want to make the text wrap around the image (like the image is situated to the right and the text on the left) then you use the ="right" attribute to the image. So it would look like this:
[lightbox="right"]path/to/image[/ lightbox]
Give that a try (not in the forums please) and see how you like it.
